WAR OF THE WORLDS RAID
SETTING: LATE SEPTEMBER
THIRD DAY OF THE WAR
PHEROMOSA
IN THE WOODS, several trainers contend with the Pheromosa and the wormhole. While
Tsubasa Yamamoto is caught by his Reuniclus,
beckett carlson’s Krookodile attempts to flee into the tunnel. However, his Hattrem is struck by several flurries of energy orbs as they flee into the dug cave; however, should they be attempting to flee toward the mountain, they would find that they need to move over to it, for they are too far away to feasibly get there in a reasonable amount of time.[break][break][break]
The
ALL-OUT PUMMELING strikes Doublade, but such a powerful can not simply be
COUNTERED without sustaining damage. As the Doublade defends its owner, his Croconaw leaps forth in desperation. A light consumes its rotund body before it pounces as a Feraligatr, taking the blows for Rufio as the Doublade faints from its injuries. A
SUPERPOWER lands, as the
ALL-OUT PUMMELING strikes the crocodile and
kim cole-essam’s Lickilicky.[break][break][break]
The rest of the kick-shaped projectiles lunge for the Councilman. Although his Kirlia is narrowly able to avoid the attack,
LANCE VOLLANS and his Pokemon are not so lucky. They take the brunt of the attack, the sheer speed of Pheromosa's attack matching its immense power. The multitude of strikes eventually bursts through
LANCE VOLLANS's body, kicking flesh out of his torso like a hole-puncher before he falls lifeless alongside his stricken Pokemon.[break][break][break]
While
Tsubasa Yamamoto’s Dewgong adds to the distraction in midst the tragedy,
kim cole-essam takes advantage of the chaos. Although his other Pokemon retaliate with echoed attacks and psychic, his Swampert swells to its newest form. Pheromosa is struck with a splash, the Mega Swampert’s fist causing the creature to double over. The Councilman’s Dragonite follows up immediately with a blast of flame. With a shriek, the Pheromosa gushes guts. Like a splatted bug, the Ultra Beast explodes from the force.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
Tsubasa Yamamoto jumps into the portal, needing Reuniclus to fly him into the sky. Inside the staticky mess, he realizes there is nothing there aside from the chaotic swirling of Ultra Space. Inside the portal, he would be thrown about, endlessly spinning and tumbling through the heavily radiated tunnel.
Three openings (one above him, below him, and to his right) appear toward the end of the tunnel— and in a parallel tunnel nearby but inaccessible, he would be able to spot three humanoid figures and a Dusknoir, of which he can not discern the identities of.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
IN THE CAVE
WITHIN THE CIRCULAR CHAMBER, chaos erupts. As Megalopolan troops surge forth, trainers and their Pokemon clash. In the center of the chamber, the gargantuan Celesteela rests on the asteroid as if it were a throne. [break][break][break]
Ruby Walker’s Mega Hatterene works in tandem with
Stormy Silph’s Blissey to disrupt the battalions of Megalopolans descending upon Hoenn’s defenses.
FUTURE SIGHT reveals little, aside from fire and whipping sounds.
mateo martinez’s Noivern blares
BOOMBURST, its screech forcing several Naganadel and their troops to topple backwards. In the opening, his Sceptile rushes forth, its arm glowing emerald as it strikes the asteroid. A deft cut exposes what’s within. Inside, the mineral that is exposed is crystalline. It swirls with energy, luminescent and brilliant.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
The energy directly feeds into the lizard. As a result,
mateo martinez’s Sceptile suddenly gains access to a
PROLONGED MEGA EVOLUTION (should it desire) &
A SINGLE-USE Z-MOVE, their body empowered and filled with immense spirit. Likewise,
Valerio Dachev’s Shadow Togepi’s
SHADOW METRONOME allows it to siphon some energy for itself, granting a
A SINGLE-USE Z-MOVE.[break][break][break]
ATTACK ON SMOHKE
The Celesteela would have responded to the reptile’s strike; however, it is preoccupied by two trainers and their Pokemon. General Smohke watches as
Kazimir Wynter and
Valerio Dachev make a ruckus as they approach. Sighing, she leans against the Celesteela’s neck as numerous vines reach out from within its verdant dress and collar. Even with the
SMOKESCREEN, Smohke is not perturbed, for she simply relies upon her large Celesteela to take of defenses for her.[break][break][break]
Several vines take the hits from
DRAGON DARTS, causing them to recoil back. However, the rest rush forth like a forest and strike
Valerio Dachev and
Kazimir Wynter from their aerial plunges, causing them to be knocked toward the ground closer to
mateo martinez's Sceptile. As they fall, they realize the vines sprout
LEECH SEED-LIKE BUDS at the end, and like the large seeds that embedded themselves in the mountain range, they flare with fire underneath as if preparing to explode.[break][break][break]
SILVALLY
While
Kazimir Wynter’s Torterra forces several troops to cower by
EARTHQUAKE,
Laurence Anderson,
Stormy Silph, and
FERNANDO SILPH find themselves against their Silvally. The canines growl, eyes a terrifying cardinal as they roar at their trainers and their legendary Pokemon. For the time being, the Silvally seem to be at a standstill. However, the
EARTHQUAKE from
Kazimir Wynter and
Ophelia Reyes’s Houndoom and Absol’s attacks causes them to escalate their aggression. Licked by flames and slashes, the chimeras lunge to attack— as the Celesteela ahead erupts with vines.[break][break][break]
Several vines strike stray League soldiers like heat-seeking missiles. At the end, the buds erupt like bombs before piercing bodies into the earth, pinning them like needles and planting themselves.[break][break][break]
maverick noah ryder’s Mega Houndoom expels intense flames alongside
Stormy Silph’s Moltres as
FERNANDO SILPH’s Smeargle assists the Legendary Bird with
KING’S SHIELD. The flames rush toward the Celesteela, and instead catch some of the incoming vines. The buds explode prematurely before they seek their targets.[break][break][break]
THE MURAL
As
FERNANDO SILPH’s Zygarde summons
LAND’S WRATH, a powerful green energy erupts underneath the feet of Megalopolan soldiers. While Clefairy
WISHES, FERNANDO SILPH takes time to examine the mural. It is not overly complicated.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
However, the mural is drawn all around the circular chamber, the walls connecting with each other in a loop.
FERNANDO SILPH would be able to gather the following story:[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
While
LILLIAN GLASS’s Pokemon frantically track for incoming attacks, her Pokemon manage to track the numerous vines coming for their party... as well as the
Silvally charging toward their owners with gnashing teeth, as if attempting to pin them down for the vines.[break][break][break]
All around, vines pierce through bodies and erupt into balls of flame. Burned bodies lay stuck in the ground, the vines using them as bloodied planters as they take root within the cave’s earth. The residual flames of
maverick noah ryder and
Stormy Silph’s Pokemon seem to travel up the vines by a small degree.[break][break][break]
